Freakout!

By beer guy - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff

Today, I got punched in the back by elderly woman because she thought I was mocking the way she walked as I passed her. I was walking funny because I have a brace-boot on my foot due to the fact that it got run over. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I was walking down the street on my way to work, when an old lady's walking stick caught my leg and sent me crashing to the ground. She apologised for the accident and watched me stumble to my feet. I said not to worry. Just as I turned to leave, I could swear a smirk crept over her face. FML

Today, an old guy with a cane got up in my face for "mocking" the way he walked. In retrospect, I guess it is pretty offensive for me to have had knee surgery and still be recovering from it. My apologies. FML

Today, I was taking a walk, when an elderly lady in a motorized wheelchair slammed into me from behind. There was plenty of room to pass by, but noooo, trying to run me down like a dog, then giving me the finger and yelling "Watch where you're walking!" is so damn preferable. FML

Today, an old lady steamrolled over my foot with her wheelchair, then laughed as she slowly rolled away, leaving my toes in ruins. FML

Today, while shopping, an old man came up to me and told me I should be ashamed for walking around fake limping, and that it's horrible to mock people who actually limp from serious injuries. I wasn't faking, I was born without my right leg and I was getting used to my new prosthetic one. FML

Today, I saw an elderly lady fall over in the street. Nobody bothered to do anything, so I went over and helped her up. Instead of thanking me, she called me a pervert and slapped me around with her cane. FML

Lawyer up

Today, I was walking out of a grocery store. I hit the button on my key to open the trunk, which hit an old lady just under her chin and knocked her to the ground. As she laid there, she pointed a shaky, bony finger at me and yelled that she would sue me for everything I have. FML

Fight Club

Today, someone punched me in the back of the head, so I swung round and broke their nose. It was some woman screaming at me for wearing headphones and ignoring her. She then pulled a hidden disability badge out her pocket so everyone thought I was beating up a disabled person. FML

Today, as I was jogging on the boardwalk, an old guy tripped me with his cane. As I was getting back up, I heard him say to his wife, "I wanted to see if she would actually fall." FML

Threatening

By supersplatoon - 08/09/2015 23:03 - United States - San Francisco

Today, I was walking down the street when someone started yelling at me, saying I was dead. I bolted, ran into a pole and when they caught up to me, said "Oh, wrong person." and walked off, leaving me bruised on the ground. FML

I would have acted like I was in terrible pain, fake some tears, called the police for assault and press charges. Teach the old bag to keep her hands to herself. Just because you're old, doesn't give you the right to hit people.

I would've dropped that old bag. One time an old bag grabbed my hair at this huge pressure washer blowout sale, and I slapped that bag so hard she saw her whole life flash before her eyes, and that's a lot of life.

Amazing assholedom! I'm glad you only had a hurt foot: My BFF walks funny because his spine is severely injured, (and because he's only 34 people constantly endanger him by assuming he's healthy) so this could easily happen to him, or someone like him, and in the case of a fragile spine like his, that bitch could have made him paraplegic! For real! Or at least doomed him to a month of recovering in bed, puking from agony. It pisses me off enough when I see teens roughousing near him, or some bimbo passing by him, shopping bags sticking out 4' from her in all directions, yakkin on her cel, oblivious that if they bumped him it would ruin his day if not his life... but if someone intentionally hurt him? Grrr, I'd be in jail for murder. I hope you had the presence of mind to give that douchebag a speech! As someone said already, it's stupid for people to assume nobody but themselves has any health issues.
